Physical Benefits Of Using A Wireless Telephone Headset

The use of wireless headsets has increased significantly over the past several years. Whether you are operating a radio, and Ipod, a cellular phone, or just a standard telephone, there are great advantages to using them. First, they are convenient. The elimination of a cord allows you to move about freely, and the signal range is constantly increasing with advancements in technology.

Many businesses are even beginning to use them for various customer service positions that require employees to use the phone frequently. This allows both hands to be free so that representatives can enter the necessary information into the computer without the hindrance of a telephone receiver or the obstacle of unwanted cables. While these advantages are more for convenience, there are physical benefits of using a wireless telephone headset that can actually a significantly positive impact on one’s overall health.

In recent years, studies have shown that the use of certain wireless headsets has been shown to reduce muscle tension up to 41 percent when used with a telephone. This means that by not holding an actual telephone receiver, you are enabling freer movement of your head, neck, and even shoulders. It also frees both hands so that it is not necessary to hold the phone receiver between your head and shoulder, which significantly reduces muscle tension and allows longer job performance. This is especially important in today’s computer age where workers must often enter a wealth of information into a computer during numerous telephone calls that can last several minutes and are conducted many times throughout the day.

Using a wireless headset for telephone work also deceases the strain placed on your hands that is caused from holding them in the same position for a long period of time. A wireless headset, in particular, allows you to move about more freely, which makes it easier for you to type on a computer keyboard, then turn and consult paperwork without the hassle of a cord. It also allows you to get up from your desk and walk over to check files without having to put the caller on hold. This makes it easier to do your job seamlessly, and can help establish a better rapport with customers because there will be fewer interruptions. In addition, you aren’t stuck in the same position all day, and are able to stretch your arms and legs as needed. This alleviates all-around muscle tension, and promotes a better working environment.

3 Important Techniques for Securing a Wireless Network

Have you recently gone wireless? If you have a wireless network at home or in the office, it is critical to have it secured. Wireless networks are prone to attacks from outsiders - perhaps even more so than with wired networks. This article shows how you can implement 3 techniques to secure a given wireless network.

1. Disable Broadcast SSID

One of the key things to do is to secure a wireless network is to disable broadcast SSID. WiFi WLANs identify themselves with a service set identifier (SSID), which names the network and works (loosely) like a password.

Unfortunately, most wireless access points transmit their SSIDs by default, which is pretty much like standing in the street and shouting your bank card PIN. Unless you have equipment that requires the access point to broadcast the SSID, turn this feature off. If you do leave it on, change the SSID to something other than the default.

2. Turn on WEP

Another thing to do is to turn on WEP, and use 128-bit keys. You shouldn’t rely on WEP to be absolutely secure, but the cracker next door isn’t less likely to have the tools, systems, or know-how to break it. WEP is a lot better than nothing (unless you’re using 64-bit keys, which are far weaker than 128-bit keys).

Access points and adapters typically let you set up the WEP key either by typing a passphrase or by entering a hexadecimal (base 16) value. We’ve had trouble making passphrases work across multiple vendors’ equipment, so we recommend generating a hexadecimal value using a long passphrase and then using the hexadecimal value everywhere. Keep a copy of the key somewhere secure because you can’t be sure you can regenerate it later.

3. Set MAC address restrictions

You should also set MAC address restrictions. Most access points let you list the physical (Media Access Control MAC) address of equipment allowed to connect to your LAN. A typical MAC address looks something like 00-0C-38-55-F4-AD. You can use a MAC restriction list containing all your devices to ensure only authorized devices connect,
although you can’t limit who might be able to listen.

Conclusion

Hopefully, this article has shown you how you can secure a wireless network to give it some basic level of protection against attackers. Good luck and happy networking!
